Hey, Glenna—Cool blog!!! And thanks so much for the knitting lesson on Monday evening. You’ve inspired me to start knitting again (it’s been a few months…). I’ve got several requests for socks and so that’s where I’ll start. I’ve got lotsa sock yarn and will take a look at some of your patterns. :-)

hi, i am actually looking for instructions to make some knee high socks, only thing is, i am a MAJOR-BEGINNER so i would need it in extremely easy language, i do not understand all that ‘p2tog, k4tog’ stuff !!! lol, so if you could do me up some instructions for this i would be very thankful.

Hello! just discovered your great site. You obviously are an excellent knitter. I am sort of a beginner, and i am wondering if you have a simple hat pattern..the kind that makes a little turned edge and then you decrease at the top and pull the yarn tight. I made two for my grandchild and can’t locate the pattern. I would like to use my yarn stash to make hats for homeless people I see on the street. A fisherman’s style with the ribbed turned up edge would also work. I know you are busy but I can’t think of anyone else to ask. Many thank, in advance. Blessings, Marilyn in Highlands, NC

This is a gorgeous blog, so well-written and fun to read, and your color choices resonate with me. Not to mention how inspiring your designs are. I’ve written up a short review of your blog on my website, hope it gets you some visitors!

I just happened to stumble acoss your site… and you are amazing… I have picked up knitting once again to get as comfortable with the needles as I have been all of my life with the hook. You inspire me!

I have found that people either have the artistic eye for a pattern and the mating of the yarn, or they do not.. you my dear are an artist. You aren’t so bad at the photography either! :)

Thank you very much (a bit belatedly)! It is indeed reassuring to have knitting around in times like these. I’m glad you stopped by. I hope there will be plenty more good blog food for thought, to come.

I am searching for a pattern, but don’t know what to look for. Recently I’ve seen sweaters everywhere that look like they are essentially 2 rectangles sewn together on the shoulders which makes a boat neck and seams sewn up the side about half way which makes sort of raglan sleeves (without the lower part of the sleeve). They are very loose fitting and could be worn over turtle necks or long sleeve tees. Anyone know of a pattern for this?

I am new to knitting and use a round loom. I’m looking for a pattern for a “scrooge” style hat that I can make using the round loom. I looked at the scrooge/cratchit pattern shown on this site but it is not for loom knitting and I don’t know how to translate it. Can anyone help. I want to make it for a Christmas gift.

I love your blog and read every entry with interest and excitement! I just now came to the free section and am anxious to start a pair of the socks with the cable stitch. Very nice – thank you so much for free patterns. I’ve missed you these past few days – happy new year!!!

The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iphone and tested to see if it can survive a
forty foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.
My iPad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
